Default RE: F-18 flaps??

Remember, the full scale hornet has the flaps and ailerons hinged to work like slotted flaps, That means better airflow when they are all deployed flaps-down. Without the slots, you should expect less performance, mushiness, etc. I am rebuilding a JDE F-18 with slotted flaps & ailerons. That will be interesting.
